Snapper, Ameri-Mex style ...

So I call this ameri-mex ... I don't know if that's a real thing, but really it's just a nod to my friend Freya who you all may remember from a prior post as the proponent of the belief that "American food just means that you took someone elses and added cheese to it."

In this instance the cheese for this dish was an awesome habanero queso fresco that Shells found at the farmer's market over the weekend.

This dish combined broiled red snapper (topped with some BW3s Desert Heat dry rub) topped with habanero queso fresco and tomato sauce and served over "re-fried" white beans.

The beans were definitely the highlight of this dinner.

"Re-fried" white beans:
14.5 oz can great northern beans
3 oz tomato sauce
1 tbsp diced green chiles
1/2 tsp garlic pepper

Put all ingredients in pan and cook over medium low heat, stirring continuously until all the liquid dissolves.  Once the liquid dissolves, transfer the contents to a hot non-stick saute pan and mash with a wooden spoon for about 1 minute.  Divide evenly and serve.
